Is it just me, or are the drivers more aggressive this year than ever? Regardless, it is also our duty as cyclists to make sure that we do all that we can to follow the rules of the road and ride defensively (remember that in the battle of bike vs. car, car always wins). Don't abuse "share the road" by riding recklessly and giving the drivers something legit to grip about. Especially in light of all the bike-auto accidents we've heard about this year already, let's be careful out there (both when you're on the bike and behind the wheel).
